I'm trying to get to my router's admin console using Google Chrome but when I type the URL for it Chrome redirects to this page:
The image says 404 Not Found and the redirected URL is: ".../cgi-bin/check_hijack.html"
The image says "404 Not Found" and the redirected URL is: ".../cgi-bin/check_hijack.html"

I've tried clearing all my history attached to a 192.168.X.X URL, deleting all my saved passwords for those admin pages and IP addresses but none has worked so far.

I'm using a Mac and the interesting part is I can get to my router's admin console via Safari or Firefox but Google Chrome just won't work.

Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Which router do you have?

  • Try to use google chrome in anonymous window.

  • You can check if same protocol is used in the browsers ( it's the part in front of visible url - it is hidden in chrome (http, https, .... You can see it when you cpy-paste the url)

    Tried opening the URL in "Incognito" mode and it worked. Wonder why it doesn't on a "non-private" window. – JESTech Aug 25 '14 at 18:32
  • i have a current generation netgear c6300 docsis3 modem and accessing http://192.168.0.1/ from regular and incognito mode, not sure what anoymous mode is, both produce a `This page isn’t working 192.168.0.1 sent an invalid response. ERR_INVALID_HTTP_RESPONSE`. I switch to edge and its fine. Seems really odd that chrome doesn't support talking to ones broadband router admin page since that would be such a common home user task. – myusrn Feb 09 '19 at 18:12
